1958 Map of Brooksville

About this map

Brooksville and Strawberry anchor this 1950s landscape where the ridges of Sand Mountain meet the dramatic folds of the Tennessee Valley. This survey captures a moment of established rural life in Blount Co and Marshall Co, marked by an extensive network of country churches and family burial grounds like Pleasant Hill Ch and Alldredge Cem. The map reveals historical land divisions, most notably the Old Cherokee Boundary and the modern The Heart Of Dixie Highway. Water dominates the local economy and geography, from the Locust Fork Warrior River in the south to the Minnow hatchery and Guntersville Caverns in the north. The terrain is defined by distinctive gaps, such as Hobson Gap and Gilbreth Gap, which have historically funneled travel through the steep ridges of Tower Ridge and Back Valley.
